Item/Description: Vintage ca 1920s-1960s ACCURATELY WORKING “American Family Scale” with capacity to weigh up to 25 lbs in both ounces and pounds.

The body of this oh-so-charmingly rustic all-metal scale is soothingly ivory-colored, with a unique, eye-catching exposed metal face plate pattern that consists of two-toned alternating silver and gray pie-wedges shapes.

Because it is as aesthetically attractive as it is functional, with its marvelous blending of vintage shabby cottage charm and mid-century modern design, it would make for a divinely decorative display feature which would enhance and add retro character to any environment, whether it be home (farmhouse or shabby chic decor), business, mercantile establishment or office .

And with a capacity to weigh up to 25 pounds in weight (including increments in ounces), it would be quite handy to have around for weighing numerous types of items from postal/Post Office packages & mail, to food/food items, to gardening items, to auto maintenance/mechanical items to...the list is endless!

Surprisingly compact in size and weight (the scale itself weighs no more than 4 lbs) for its heavy/large weighing/weight capability of up to 25 lbs, it will easily fit on any kitchen counter for ease of access and convenience, as well as any plant shelf or office bookcase.

It would also fabulously serve as an educational aid for children, teaching them how much different things weigh (and just envision how fantastic this would look as an interior design feature in any child’s room).

***PLEASE NOTE: Though the scale is currently properly starting at “Zero”/“0" weight, it may need to be re-calibrated post-shipping (re-calibration is very simple with this scale).
